No they don't.

Article I
Section 3 Senate
Clause 7 Impeachment Judgments
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.

This clause clearly shows that the impeachment process has nothing to do with criminal immunity, so no authority to define an official act, as criminal immunity doesn't relate to the impeachment process at all.
